This causes your vision, both near and far, to deteriorate. When the lens is replaced, your own natural lens is replaced by a very advanced artificial lens or implant lens. This will enable your eye to see clearly again from far, medium distance, and nearby.<br \/>The impact of this treatment is permanent as the implant lens has a permanent reading correction that will not change over time. In 80% of cases, no glasses are needed after the procedure. In 15% of the cases, glasses may still be needed either for near or far vision. Only in 5% of the cases are glasses still regularly needed.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on your preferences and your life and work situation, we will determine which lens is best suited to you. Our doctors have experience with monofocal (sharp vision at one particular distance) and multifocal (sharp vision at various distances) lenses, as well as with the technique of \u2018monovision\u2019 (one lens for near and one for far vision). After the intake exam, we determine the most suitable lens for you.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div
